Dave's New Mexican Breakfast Tostada ~ So Good 06Dec25

We reprised a tasty breakfast tostada I'd conceived. Kala su-cheffed. I'll name it as in the subject line of this entry.

Ingredients: 5" corn tortilla, 1 over very easy egg, shredded Mex cheese, 1/4 avocado, dollop Gringo salsa, smidge onion flakes, smidge hot New Mex red chili powder (substitute regular, Ancho, or alt chili powder as desired), 3 TBsp of diced protein (smoked turkey, pulled pork, etc), salt & pepper to taste, sliced radishes.

Recipe:

1. Preheat oven to 425°, dice avocado, dice protein, have egg ready. Heat non-stick frying pan to medium (have a cover ready). Prepare a shallow oven grill pan with aluminum foil with a light spritz of Pam.
2.  Warm/toast tortilla on first side. Flip tortilla, cover with shredded cheese, sprinkle with onion flakes & chili powder. Cover the pan.
   
   
3. Once cheese is melted evenly on top of tortilla, remove cover and flip the tortilla again with cheese side down (it has enough oil in it). 
4. With cheese golden brown crisp (~1min), use spatula again to move tortillas to prepared oven pan with cheese side up. Add diced ready avocado & protein to tortillas. Pop in the oven (primarily to heat the protein from fridge temps) while you prep the egg.
   
5. Wipe frying pan clean with paper towel and return to stove top on med low heat. Make over very easy egg in tab of butter; salt and pepper egg to taste on sunny side before flipping briefly. Once completed, move egg to on top of tortilla (flipping back to seasoned side up).
   
6. Move assembly to oven and bake extra minute if needed.
   
7. Remove from oven and onto serving plates; top egg with ~6 radish slices and a dollop of salsa.

Taste: Yumm. You might need a knife.
